Theres something to be said for buying your Butterball at the market, as opposed to going to the farm to get your free range, “fresh” turkey!! Darn things have such a fowl attitude!!

the first thanksgivingminiturkeylurky
In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast which is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. This harvest meal has become a symbol of cooperation and interaction between English colonists and Native Americans.

Although this feast is considered by many to the very first Thanksgiving celebration, it was actually in keeping with a long tradition of celebrating the harvest and giving thanks for a successful bounty of crops. Native American groups throughout the Americas, including the Pueblo, Cherokee, Creek and many others organized harvest festivals, ceremonial dances, and other celebrations of thanks for centuries before the arrival of Europeans in North America.

      Yeahhh, the concept of meeting the turkey your going to serve is an experience that leaves you eating the fixings only!! *grin*

    I’ll take the verbally abusive one. Am I the only person in the world that prefers processed turkey over the real stuff?

    • jynksie

      You must love the taste of Sodium Tripolyphosphate then!

      • Bearman

        Sure is that what they use to process it. I don’t know. No matter whose turkey I have eaten even if it is moist, it still tastes dry.

        • jynksie

          You need to try the wifes turkey then! It literally melts in your mouth with all of its moisty goodness! o.O …you have to keep pouring the juices over the bird as it cooks! *slurp*

    • jynksie
